multiple tempos syncronisation

yerpzs's icon

hello

i would like to create more than one tempo at the same time and have it remain in perfect sync( eg: banging out 120 bpm and 180bpm at the same time)

i tried more than one (metro) but that had sync issues when i scrolled the page up and down at times.

also I tried one (metro 1) connected to multiple counter's but there was glitching.

i tried more than one (tempo) object but that also had sync issues when moving around sub patcher’s, scrolling and so forth.

i tried (metro @quantize 16n @active 1) but if I scroll the screen around it gets a bit glitchey.

Is there a trick I am missing?

Thanks for your help.

Did you check the [transport] object? Several locked tempi sound like one master tempo with different subdivisions.
Yes, Max scheduler might get imprecise when you scroll around or use other intensive Max processing. Try Options -> Audio Status -> Scheduler in Overdrive On + maybe Audio Interrupt On, you should get a tighter tempo.

Thank you Jean

i managed to find a way to loadbang the "scheduler in overdrive" and "audio interrupt on "
within my stand alone and it helped fix the glitches on a laptop ( a laptop where EIST aka Speed-Step was fluctuating the cpu multiplier and i think this was not helping the standalone.

forcing a loadbang on your suggested parameters seems to have fixed this.

Thank you !!! : )
